and a less nice job on my 686, i'll like shave more off of this one.

you can certainly sand them down to a nice factory looking finish, I really dont go to crazy on refinishing too nice on my own guns, cause well - I really dont care to much on how it looks. My guns are tools, not show pieces. you can see how much a relived on this grip, and you can still see where the moonclip hits the grip on the way out.

It's called a dremel , just sand it down ! I relive that area on all my grips for proper clearing of moonclips / brass

World Class Steel moved out to LIPSA in Long Island if you like to still attend that one like you guys have in years past. I think the info is on the website.

There is no "big" match at old bridge this year

I think Glenn has used up all 9 lives by now.

bob, email it to me and i'll set it up in a format which is easy to read here.

Crappy moonclip vs Quality Moonclip

Also, check out http://www.revolversupply.com/moon-clips-38-357-8-shot-blue/ for moonclips, they are a step above ranch IMO. Their 0.25" clip is a good general purpose clip

quality moonclips are specific to a particular headstamp. It's hard to have one moonclip that fits all , because all manufacturers have different tolerances for the groove. It's pretty common for revolver shooters to buy moonclips to specific headstamp, or sort by headstamp to fit whatever clips you currently have. check out this link for quality moonclips and what brass they fit. http://www.tkcustom.com/cart/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=196&cat=%2E38+Special%2F%2E357+Magnum+-+6+%26+8+Shot%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3ELarge+N++-+Frame+Models%3C%2FP%3E

Well said, from a shooting competition stand point - I do alot of dry-fire. With a 1 year old running around and both the wife and I working full time jobs on opposite schedules it doesn't leave much room for live-fire practice. Needing to keep up with my gun handling, reloads and fundamentals can all be learned in dryfire. ( and it's cheaper ! save dem bullets ! ) One of the worlds best competition shooters has a line of pretty excellent books and dvds about dry fire and dryfire drills. http://benstoegerproshop.com/books-dvds/

As a woodbridge resident I heard something about this when It happened. I dont feel bad, play stupid games wins stupid prizes.

1st, Confirm with another ( experienced ) shooter that it's not the gun itself shooting low left. The sights MAY need to be adjusted. Now, once we confirm it is you and not the gun - Low left shooting is typically a sign of poor weak hand grip or jerking the trigger. Make sure you have a good strong ( PROPER ) weak hand grip and have the proper amount of trigger finger in there. Work on learning the correct fundamentals and go from there. Dryfire will not hurt the gun, Plenty of people dryfire many thousands of times with no ill effects. If you are concerned - it's always a good practice to dryfire on a dummy round or snap cap.

Lou, do you work on generators?

Stocked up 32 lbs last time, I be good !

Friends don't let friends buy Kimbers

Might not be a bad thing , depending on the shooter. Va Va VooM! Though, I can see a uber l33t IDPA old guys wearing them first.

you must have a killer vacuum cleaner.

the other thing i've seen, especially with CCI mini mags, they are prone to more failures when it's cold outside. They have a waxy coating on them, my theory is the cold weather hardens that wax up causing issues.

So, It's a 900 dollar stainless steel LCR that Ruger sells for 399.
